Book: Thursday Murder Club
Author: Richard Osman
Pages: 384
This is my 71st read of the year
This is a story of four friends in a retirement village in England who meet each week. They discuss unsolved crimes and call themselves the Thursday Murder Club. Now they are involved in their first live case - one that takes them beyond the village and their discussions and right into the middle of an investigation.
This was a cute book. It was an easy read, and I liked most of the characters. It had a slow start, but did pick up as it went along, so I am glad I stuck with it. Might be a bit too wordy for a short novel - an editor could have helped tighten up the plot. Believe it or not - there is a small dialogue in this book that bumped it a star for me - brought me to near tears with the sentimental bit, so there is that.
